what you're doing is downgrading the protection of HTTPS to something

give to students is likely to be copied and pasted into their
production code.)
See if you can tie in with your OS's cert store first. If you can't,
look at "import ssl" and creating a custom SSL context that doesn't
verify.
That's likely to distract and confuse students as well.
I would suggest looking for a different example that
doesn't require interacting with an https site.
